The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine is underway and the Bucs are busy meeting with draft prospects in Indianapolis this week. Each NFL team is allowed to conduct 45 formal interviews, where they can meet with prospects for 18 minutes. That’s a recent change, as four years ago, NFL teams were allowed 60 15-minute formal interviews.

Tampa Bay’s area scouts and position coaches can conduct informal interviews with more than 45 players, but the 45 formal interviews are in front of the Buccaneers coordinators, in addition to general manager Jason Licht and head coach Todd Bowles, who Pewter Report spoke to at the beginning of the week.

Pewter Report is compiling a list of draft prospects we can confirm have met with the Bucs in Indianapolis – either formally or informally. Keep in mind that the Buccaneers did not meet with former first-round pick Calijah Kancey at the NFL Scouting Combine in 2023, nor did the team have Kancey in for a Top 30 visit. Tampa Bay completely disguised their interest in Kancey before selecting him.

This Bucs Combine Interview Tracker will be updated daily during the week in Indy, so check back often. Prospects who have been formally interviewed appear in BOLD text. Updates will be noted with two asterisks (**) and italicization.
